Manage episode 432615565 series 2779324
When 20 or so upper class reveler’s end up at a post-opera gathering hosted by one of their peers, everything seems perfectly… polite. But then director Luis Buñuel imparts upon them the one unbreakable rule of the film: no one can ever leave the well-appointed drawing room. Ever. What follows is a study in the logistics of human survival, depravity, and an allegory of the lies we tell ourselves as we sink into fascism.
